speakeras a file on Sound Recorder)

Re: Record background sounds

Right click on the Speaker icon in the Notification Area of the Taskbar and
select Recording Devices.

Right click in the Recording tab window and make sure that "Show Disabled
Devices" and "Show Disconnected Devices" are both checked.

Do you have an item called "What-U-Hear" (Creative) or "Stereo Mix" (Realtek)?
If so, select it as the default recording device.

What sound card do you have (some sound card drivers do not have this option)?

That option isn't available. There is a "Waveout Mix" but its marked
as unavailable. I have Conexant High Definition Audio.

And yeah... Go Bears!

I tried enabling the WaveOut Mix option, but no sound was picked up
from it. When I set the Audio Recorder to pick up from the Waveout
Mix, it just said that no recording device was found. Audio Recorder
works perfectly with the microphone though.
